    No I'm talking about the comedian Paddy Courtney, as supposed to drivetime presenter Pat Courtenay (with an A).

    So how long do you all think this show will last? I’m still annoyed about it- good god how can anyone think that Colm Hayes is even vaguely entertaining. I got used to marty in morns- fairly natural , Dee grand on her own show when Not talking babies etc , Ruth Scott annoying at first but played some ok tunes. Next question ? What to listen to now in mornings? No fancy radios in my car - anything even halfway decent will do once I don’t have to listen to that pair again
    Don't think it will last very long. Think it would work better if Colm was on his own.

    Absolutely dire show. Listened to it for the past two weeks and honestly don't know what they are aiming to do with it. Bland conversation, inane sh*t talk about trivial topics that go nowhere, and LK has brought her kid on to do a segment that involves describing some person with lip gloss and boobies!! That was the nadir for me..... so.......I'm out. Shame too as I found Conor and Marty to be bearable in the mornings on my way to work.

    Yeah didn't listen this morning, heard some 'Little Holly' bit yesterday morning, not quite sure what it was, some obnoxious recordings of a kid telling you you got the answer wrong - that was me out! . Following the well worn pattern that Colm brings to radio, jingles, the prank phone calls, they'll be calling themselves CoCo and LuLu next and neither seems to have any clue about music. Truly a dire state of affairs.

    I heard some of this tripe before 9 this morning. They played that riptide song from 2 or 3 years ago. Ed sheeran can't be far off now if this is what they're playing

    Not made listen but had no alternative this morning flicked around. Just decided I'll stay here give them a listen.

    Jaysus the stings at the breaks.
    They live 3miles apart
    They have 5 kids between them
    They worked together 6years ago

    As for the kid competition thing jaysus Stop lads it's not funny. Its obnoxious.
    Music is so much lighter.

    Bring back Dee and Marty and the phone the boss I'll be late at least you could have any music on at that.

    Better yet Bring back the quality music with a 5second talking in between songs just perfect.
    Was in Par Courtney on in the morning around 2012ish?

    I'm sorry I can't get on board with this show.

    That's correct. Pat Courtenay hosted Nova Breakfast from the station's launch in 2010 until he moved to Nova Drive in 2013 (he continues to host Nova Drive to this day).

    I admit I was still popping in for 10 minutes here and there this week in the hope that i'll tune in one morning and they'll be gone, banished to the basement of Nova - alas not yet! . Yesterdays highlight was the star gossip section and we got to hear all about Rihanna and Katy Perry having a fight....... I don't think i'll be popping in to listen anymore. Not only that but they haven't a clue about music, at least with the other pair you'd get the odd little bit of music trivia thrown in along with some pretty decent tunes. Loooocy literally hasn't a bulls notion about music and Colm doesn't like anything that drowns out his own voice. Wasn't aware that the obnoxious sounding kid was his..... figures!

    isnt that what all the other "hip & trendy younger peoples" stations go on about???? plus the fight was probably quotes from each one in a "celebrity gossip" website and not a proper rock n roll punching the heads off each other old school fight

    Is this not the case for almost all niche music stations available on the air.

    Sunshine FM has become easy listening ditching the country twang.
    4fm left the 50s and 60s a few years back
    would TXFM just become less and less about alternative rock?
    They have pretty much all followed Q102

    Theyre killing radio imo...they all started off with their "fresh approach" to music, after a while they all just morphed into the same boring gossip and chat ridden lump that is irish radio...The game is about stealing listeners from the others which is where Nova are going , hence the morning show gossip sh1te...radio is dead..long live radio...:)

    If Lucy would shut her hole about her kids for 5mins it would make a big difference,

    Not me. I haven't listened to NOVA in the morning since a week or so after they started. I've inadvertently discovered that being gently woken by Lyric Through The Night's classical tunes is a lovely way to start the day. My radio alarm was previously set on NOVA but I had to find something else when Colm & Lucy took over. I've become quite fond of feeling like I'm in an episode of Inspector Morse for that first half an hour of the day.

    I now play CDs in the kitchen, while preparing breakfast and getting ready for work, instead of listening to radio NOVA. That's been quite enjoyable too except for the discovery that many of my previously neglected CDs are scratched. :(

    In a way, Colm & Lucy have been a positive force in my life. Such was the need to find an alternative to their mulch, I've reinvented my mornings. Now each day, my return to the world of being awake is gentle & peaceful and my breakfast preparations are energetic and full voiced (that'd be me - singing along)....well, until the CD gets stuck I'm singing along. By the time I'm ready to leave the house, I've been soothed & then energised. Mornings never felt so good :)
